We are Nomads You & I
For 28 years we raised a family just west of Portland, Oregon. On a hike up a mountain of evergreens in 2014 an idea for a Nomad Quest was born, and vast preparations have ensued since around the ridding of excess in favor of freedom - jettisoning the superfluous to better enjoy what matters most.
Having now liquidated most of our possessions and having fine tuned our plan, we now happily live out of our Airstream van full time. This Nomad Quest is, all at once, both a daunting and liberating voyage as we explore, learn, and grow in this world's most amazing classroom - God’s people and all creation!
We're happy to have you along to share our travel stories and beyond on our blog and podcasts! Listen to our podcast below to hear our love story, and the other podcasts that follow!
Listen to our Podcast
Our hearts are in happy anticipation of falling in love with moments, doing things for the first time, experiencing moments hard to put into words, and doing the things we know we'll remember forever.
We discuss a diverse array of topics in our podcast and hope to shine God's blessing of our happy, full, and free life in Christ with listeners around the world.
He Makes All Things New. Even You.
Pre-denominational Christians were minimalists of the best kind. They not only rejected the trappings of materialism (Acts 2:45), they were unencumbered with the extra-biblical teachings and traditions that unnecessarily rob too many believers today of the freedom in Christ we were meant to enjoy. Authentic, restored Christianity is clean. It’s not wasteful, and in primitive Christianity alone, God has placed genuine happiness, deep fulfillment and indescribable freedom. Your Fresh Start is an opportunity to spiritually de-clutter your soul and even your church. This book discusses the five spiritual essentials every human being cannot live without: a relationship with our spiritual Father, His wise instruction book for life, a Savior for your eternal soul, your spiritual family, and taking pleasure in the pristine simplicity of living daily for God’s purposes. Times of refreshing come from just one place― the presence of the Lord (Acts 3:19). He makes all things new (Revelation 21:5), including you. You were born for this.

During the course of our Nomad Quest preparations it occurred to us, what if we set out to visit 100 churches. What a passion project THAT would be! We could support the struggling and cheer the valiant.
This Quest could plant God’s light and transformative love into the lives of souls worth more than the whole world. We could offer to the individuals we meet a Fresh Start toward living more purpose-filled lives that, in the end, bear fruit to His glory!
